I carry briefcase...

OK, not literally...but my current purse is a small briefcase looking thing that is supposed to hold cigars. However, when I first laid eyes on it...I knew it was meant to hold my keys.

I have an insane collection of purses. Red, brown, green, white, and black. Cloth, knitted, leather, metal, wooden, and plastic. Small, large, ginormous, and minuscule. Cigar box purses, lunch box purses, Chinese take-out purses, and licence plate purses. Everything from $9.99 to $190.00

Al often jokes with his friends that I have a massive trunk filled with purses. Only it isn't a joke....it sits at the foot of my bed.

People ask me why I have so many. I think perhaps its the simple fact that no matter how much weight I gain...or lose...I never have to give them up. Even shoes have their limit, but purses...never. That and they are just so dang cute!!!

My next purse purchase? An album cover purse I fell in love with in Kansas. There is, on the other hand, the sexiest little Bettie Page Fender purse. Ohhhh the possibilities!!!!

Get off the poor dogs back! If you had been raised in a country with tiny little spaces and then moved to the wide open spaces you'd have anxiety too. I too love purses and for the same reasons! Mine are hanging in a closet on hooks from the bottom of the racks. You can NEVER have enough purses. FLASH!!! What am I going to do when we go full time rver next year???!!!grma
